 How to shift the focus from the contract being a safety net for when things go wrong to having it be a strategic tool to make sure things go right
3. Cost Modeling & Benchmarking for success

Why the traditional notion of Win-Win is completely wrong and needs to be thrown out the window
 What the Art and Science of negotiations really is: Meeting ALL of your high value/high TCO objectives while knowing how to make the supplier feel good about the deal
 Why listening is the most important negotiation skill and how to use it to achieve Win-Win
 How to use a concessions worksheet model to ensure that you know exactly what the supplier wants, and how to deliver them some "wins" that are high value but have minimal impact to your TCO

With the government’s recent announcement that the LRT-1South extension project will finally push through after the delays last 2016, commuters coming from the South area are now guaranteed of an easier travel. The better news is that the Department of Transportation or the DOTr has partnered with one of the biggest companies in the world in providing the train sets for the said project.
The DOTr, together with Mitsubishi Corporation, recently sealed the agreement for the procurement of the 120 new Light Rail Vehicles or LRVs for the LRT-1 South extension project, a 12-kilometer extension from Baclaran to Bacoor, Cavite.
The contract signing was also witnessed by the Ambassador of Spain, representatives from the Embassy of Japan, JapanInternational CooperationAgency, Light RailManilaCorporation, and ranking officials of the DOTr.
According to the department, the 120 LRVs are designed with four-LRV configuration. Each train set would have a minimum of 1,388 passengers, sitting and standing. Additionally, they are expected to be energy efficient and have low maintenance cost.
The DOTr says that after the delays in the project last year, the department is now more eager to push through especially with the help of agencies from other countries.
Also according to the department, the LRT-1 CaviteExtension project is currently on the final design stage and pre-construction activities. Actual construction will start next year and will be completed within the term of the current administration.
A large number of the general commuting public take the LRT-1 on a daily basis. When the LRT-1 Cavite Extension project is finally completed, for sure commuters who are traveling from Baclaran to Cavite and vice versa will have a much easier access.

Procurement

Procurement is the act of acquiring, buying goods, services or works from an external source. It is favourable that the goods, services or works are appropriate and that they are procured at the best possible cost to meet the needs of the acquirer in terms of quality and quantity, time, and location. Corporations and public bodies often define processes intended to promote fair and open competition for their business while minimizing exposure to fraud and collusion.

Overview

Almost all purchasing decisions include factors such as delivery and handling, marginal benefit, and price fluctuations. Procurement generally involves making buying decisions under conditions of scarcity. If good data is available, it is good practice to make use of economic analysis methods such as cost-benefit analysis or cost-utility analysis.

An important distinction should be made between analyses without risk and those with risk. Where risk is involved, either in the costs or the benefits, the concept of expected value may be employed.

YOU WILL LEARN:
1. Taking costs out of supply chain
 Why asking suppliers to reduce price is an antiquated strategy
 Why focusing on supplier profit reduction only attacks a very small part of TCO
 How to make your suppliers excited about reducing TCO instead fighting against you
 How to change your RFX (RFP, RFQ) strategy and approach forever to get far more innovative and deep cost savings responses from suppliers
2. Writing contracts to prevent & remedy TCO excursions
 Why relying on the legal department to "own" the contract terms is the biggest disservice to your results and to your career
 How empowering yourself with contract knowledge can liberate you from being dependent on the legal department
 Why relying on the standard contract template terms can get you in lots of hot water and how to stay out of it
 How to shift the focus from the contract being a safety net for when things go wrong to having it be a strategic tool to make sure things go right
3. Cost Modeling & Benchmarking for success
 What the different sorts of cost models are (Should Cost, Must Cost, Total Cost)
 When to use each type of cost model and when to use benchmarking
 Why using the wrong type of tool will get you poor results and result in lots of wasted time
4. Using concessions to achieve Win-Win
Why the traditional notion of Win-Win is completely wrong and needs to be thrown out the window
 What the Art and Science of negotiations really is: Meeting ALL of your high value/high TCO objectives while knowing how to make the supplier feel good about the deal
 Why listening is the most important negotiation skill and how to use it to achieve Win-Win
 How to use a concessions worksheet model to ensure that you know exactly what the supplier wants, and how to deliver them some "wins" that are high value but have minimal impact to your TCO
Omid goes even deeper into each of these topics in training through his website, seminars, webinars and courses.
We invite you to join our community and experience a paradigm shift in purchasing that will make your career and life much less stressful and much more enjoyable.

With the government’s recent announcement that the LRT-1South extension project will finally push through after the delays last 2016, commuters coming from the South area are now guaranteed of an easier travel. The better news is that the Department of Transportation or the DOTr has partnered with one of the biggest companies in the world in providing the train sets for the said project.
The DOTr, together with Mitsubishi Corporation, recently sealed the agreement for the procurement of the 120 new Light Rail Vehicles or LRVs for the LRT-1 South extension project, a 12-kilometer extension from Baclaran to Bacoor, Cavite.
The contract signing was also witnessed by the Ambassador of Spain, representatives from the Embassy of Japan, JapanInternational CooperationAgency, Light RailManilaCorporation, and ranking officials of the DOTr.
According to the department, the 120 LRVs are designed with four-LRV configuration. Each train set would have a minimum of 1,388 passengers, sitting and standing. Additionally, they are expected to be energy efficient and have low maintenance cost.
The DOTr says that after the delays in the project last year, the department is now more eager to push through especially with the help of agencies from other countries.
Also according to the department, the LRT-1 CaviteExtension project is currently on the final design stage and pre-construction activities. Actual construction will start next year and will be completed within the term of the current administration.
A large number of the general commuting public take the LRT-1 on a daily basis. When the LRT-1 Cavite Extension project is finally completed, for sure commuters who are traveling from Baclaran to Cavite and vice versa will have a much easier access.
